He has no influence over Oprah and is quite happy to say completely opposite things years in advance so he can quote whatever he wants. He won't start backing up predictions regularly until much closer to the time when a lot more info is available. What he is doing by tweeting about current trends is getting people such as yourself to advertise to other members of hos target audience. Plus being able to quote something you are saying years on advance seems smart.Originally Posted by wufwugy
Persuasion off the charts.
I'm like 98% positive that Adams said in a periscope that Oprah would beat anybody if she ran.
What's he doing here? Trying to convince Oprah to not run. He's making her think "yeah I am very smart" and associating it with not running, putting a visual image of her getting cut up and killed if she runs, and framing it through aversion to loss (which people care more about than gains from win). Also the fact that he's "predicting" probably frames it for Oprah to make the prediction actualize.
